Spring Cleaning Update

Remember my spring cleaning list? I took a gander at it this weekend and realized that I've already checked half of it off! To think, if I'd never written it all down, I'd have gone on with my life feeling harried and stressed. Instead, I get to take this opportunity to revel in accomplishment. In the spirit of full disclosure, I do have to say that I ended up paying someone to wash my windows. Jared repaired the kid's ceiling fan. And my brother installed the fan in the playroom. Still. I bought it. :) Cheers to an *almost* clean home!  {image via Real Simple}
